Related question for the same itin. Is there a way to get a miles-based upgrade for just the EWR-SFO segment? If booked separately, it's available at $250+17.5k miles. I'd rather not use my Plus Points for it, since that's my only chance of upgrading an LH flight into Premium Economy (from an H fare) if I understand things correctly. Thanks!
